I have had this for a little while and I know a few people here have it. I saw Chris on Steam the other day playing and I pointed him to the subreddit - www.reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylines/Here is list of the Essential Mods of 2015 (and I know how much we all love mods!!!) www.reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylines/comments/3c5sku/been_seeing_questions_from_new_users_on_essential/I play with the money turned off so I can just build whatever I want. There is a new expansion coming soon also. Here is a video that shows the game will have day/night cycles So if anybody has some cool mods or anything they want share like screenshots I figured I would just get a thread started.

This is on sale for something like $10 US right now. I had this on my watchlist since this thread and it popped up today

By the way, you can all eat a bag of dicks for getting me hooked on this game. I'm even dreaming of traffic now...

This was posted over on reddit and is a 200+ page comprehensive urban planning guide for C:S From OP "I've spent the past month or so working on making a fully comprehensive city planning guide for C:S, and went in way over my head. This was done using official city guidelines and policies from the City of Toronto, Vancouver, and Richmond Hill, as well as three (3) online courses on city planning (two of which were European, and one American). Here is a link to the final product: Urban Planning and Design for Cities: Skylines! Here's a brief overview of what it contains: Transit-Oriented Communities and Public Transit Complete Street Guidelines Building Design Principles Airport–City Connection Tall, Mid-Rise, Townhouse/Low-Rise Apartment, and Single Residential Building Guidelines Neighbourhood Plazas and Large Format Retail Institutional Buildings Planning for Children in New Vertical Communities Parks Effective Lighting Green Parking Lot Design City Design History Different Design Schools Environmental Considerations Preserving Older Cities and Districts Integrating and Improving Slums Community, Neighbourhoods, and Human Interaction Designing New Cities, Districts and Neighbourhoods The first 30 pages or so cover theory, while the remaining 160 pages consist of specific instructional guidelines that you can follow in making your cities. The organisation is a bit weird, but I tried my best to make it easy to follow (lmao) -- I'd probably start with the guidelines (appendices), read those in order, and then look at the previous actual sections (not appendices, i.e. numbered sections) for more info. But you can read it however you want lol. Just read what sections interest you, they're independent (mostly)! Let me know what you think of it!
